The experiential study on the development of the concept of adult education of Kobayashi Bunjou and on the activities of Rakuseigakuen

第一项研究任务“阐明小林文条成人教育理念的发展过程以及乐天学园的诞生和终结过程“（任务1）已基本完成。第二，关于任务1的结果，“阐明成人教育者的资格和老年教育活动的要点”（任务2），虽然主要取决于未来的研究，但已经解决了有关老年人教育观念，教育计划和教育方法的重要问题。例如，小林文寿的乐天学园可以与吉田秀因的寿加善宿相比较，所以我打算研究小林文寿与吉田秀因的比较，乐天学园与寿加善宿的比较。最后，“收集和保存关于小林文寿和乐天学园的有价值的资料”（任务3），结果发现了许多未知的有价值的印刷品和音频-这是存放在小林文寿牧师所在的国急寺小房子里的视觉材料。国急寺的现任牧师表示要将这些材料提交给伊那市，但伊那市正在考虑接受他的提议。此外，大部分研究任务已经完成，但还有许多新的任务正在开发。因此，这项研究需要继续下去。

First of research tasks, "to elucidate the process of development of the concept of adult education of Kobayasi Bunjo and the process of the birth and the end of Rakuseigakuen "(Task 1) was almost successfully accomplished. (Published at the academic assembly).Second, on the results of Task 1, "to elucidate the qualifications of an adult educator and the essentials of older adult education activities"(Task 2), though it mostly depends on the future research, has closed up important issues about the educational concept, educational programs and educational methods for older adults. For example, Rakuseigakuenn by Kobayasi Bunjou can be compared with Shoukasonjuku by Yoshida Shouin and so I am planning to research Kobayashi Bunjou comparing with Yoshida Shouin and Rakuseigakuen comparing with Shoukasonjuku.Finally, "to collect and reserve valuable materials on Kobayasi Bunjou and Rakuseigakuen" (Task 3) resulted in finding lots of unknown valuable printed materials and audio-visual materials which was stored in the small house in Kokyuji where Kobayashi Bunjou was priest. The incumbent priest of Kokyuji expressed to present these materials to Ina City but Ina City is considering to accept his proposalAdding to it, most of the research tasks are accomplished but lots of another new tasks are developed. So this research needs tobe continued.
